Just a fun poll for those of you who like special numbers.  The type of note is whatever you want it to be.

Post if you want to explain your choice.

I personally like the 0001000.



Symmetry over low number. I have never understood the fascination for low numbers. I have heard that in NCLT coins low numbers in COA may suggest early mintages and possibly better quality. I am not sure if that hold with bank notes.

Also it reminds me of this caricature in Indian mythology http://0.tqn.com/d/hinduism/1/0/f/X/durgapuja19.jpg


Wonder what paper money would say if it could talk?

I would have to say that I like low numbers...especially the #0000001 notes.....but finding that 0001000 was pretty neat as well :D

My favourite numbers are on my specimen notes -- 0000000, can't have a serial # lower than that AND it's a solid digit radar.

Both are great. One is a radar the other a low serial number. Plus both are binary.

I don't own any specimen notes, but will say I would like to....the concern I have always had is that they have no face value :)

Although I'd certainly like to have either note, if I had to choose one, I'd go for the radar.

I find either note would "look cool" in my collection (with all those ZEROS!)
